Description

Every parent wants their children to be able to live well in the future." Many researchers said habit of the children would have a deep impact on the child's future. The UK philosopher Francis Bacon said: "The habit is a tenacious and great strength, it can influence a person's life. Therefore, every child should develop a good habit through education starting from an early age." Every parent should learn how to cultivate and nurture a good habit in their children while they are young.

When was the last time you read books with your children? Nowadays, many parents spend lesser and lesser time in the company of their kids.

As children are being increasingly exposed to " high-technology products “at such an early age, there tends to be a lack of communication between parents and children. At the same time, heavy work responsibilities are keeping parents away from their kids.

Parents fixation with the idea of their children getting perfect score in their academic performance leads them to believe that playing is a waste of time. Hence, they prefer to have their children in endless tuition classes.

Learning is a voluntary act, rather than forced. This will make the child feel exhausted, and unwittingly deprive them of their childhood.

The mission of the Readers’ Sanctuary is to provide parents and children the opportunity to spend quality time together on weekends to read books, play and enjoy each other’s company. We have a small library, stocked with more than 800 books. The books are for both parents and children. They include many categories like fantasy, adventure, fairy tales, literature, humanities, cognitive science, spiritual enhancement, and many others, as well as a vast collection of pictorial books in Bahasa, English and Mandarin.

We also provide a small playground for children from aged 3-9 with a variety of educational toys. They can help to enhance a child's thinking skills and creativity.

In addition, this center provides a unique series of life skills courses.
